    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

This is a super cage, fully acrylic, so won’t ever smell, and fully water proof. It was a Tru-Vu 240 gallon aquarium, so is super strong. This easily housed a pair of 9ft. plus Black Headed Pythons. Snakes are now in New York, and the cage is idle and just taking up space. The price is firm at $750.00, and well worth it. It would cost more than twice as much in materials, plus the time and effort it would take to build it. Items:

- All Acrylic Reptile Cage (72” long X 24” deep X 30” tall)
- Golden oak stand (75 ¼” long X 26.5” deep X 24” tall)
- Two Pro-heat radiant heat panels
- Remote thermometer with two remote sensors (reads on front of cage)
- Flex Watt- 50% bottom coverage wired to rheostat
- Big Apple 300 watt proportional thermostat

Details: Cage:
- 1/2” thick all the way around with two large doors on front with locks (escape proof). Two large removeable shelves (24” X 34”) more than doubles the amount of floor space. One is 20” from bottom, the other is 11”. They have ½” lips around the edge to prevent water, or any other liquid from running off of shelf. Also have 3 small painted steel strips on bottom of shelves to prevent warping. Two small vents on top back of cage (expandable). Being tri-level, and having floor heat on half, provides a temperature gradient throughout cage. Overall height of cage is 57 3/16” tall.

Stand:
Solid Oak, with reflective radiant heat insulation panels built on inside top of stand, to relect the heat back into the cage, and cool air back towards floor.

Heat Panels:
Top of the line Pro-Products heat panels. By far the best way to heat reptiles. Never gets hot enough to burn animal, and provides realistic radiant heat, and lasts forever. Also uses much less energy to heat your cage. Large panel is 18” X 36”, small panel is 18” X 12”

Flex Watt:
Heats 50% of the bottom of the cage for additional floor heat. Wired into to an adjustable rheostat, to prevent over heating.

Thermostat:
Big apple 300 watt proportional thermostat easily handles the panels and flex watt, with plenty of wattage to spare.
